 # Changelog

+## 2026-03-10 - 3.45.0 - feat(dees-form)
+register new input components (tags, list, wysiwyg, richtext) and emit change notification for richtext updates
+
+- Added imports and registration of DeesInputTags, DeesInputList, DeesInputWysiwyg, and DeesInputRichtext in dees-form
+- Extended TFormInputElement union type to include the new input components
+- DeesInputRichtext now calls changeSubject.next(this.value) in the editor onUpdate handler to propagate changes
+
+## 2026-03-10 - 3.44.0 - feat(appui-tabs)
+add support for left/right tab action buttons and content tab action APIs
+
+- Introduce ITabAction interface and add actionsLeft/actionsRight properties to dees-appui-tabs, dees-appui-maincontent, and dees-appui.
+- Render action buttons with new styles and renderActions() helper, including disabled state and click handlers; wire actions into tab components.
+- Add public clear() on dees-appui-tabs and improve tab selection logic to reset selection when tabs become empty or when the selected tab is removed.
+- Expose setContentTabActionsLeft and setContentTabActionsRight on the DeesAppui programmatic API and update interfaces/appconfig accordingly.
+- Update demos to showcase action buttons, add clear-all behavior, and adjust layout/styling for action areas.
+
+## 2026-03-09 - 3.43.4 - fix(media)
+remove deprecated dees-pdf and dees-pdf-preview components and bump several dependencies
+
+- Removed deprecated PDF components and related demos/styles: ts_web/elements/00group-media/dees-pdf/* and ts_web/elements/00group-media/dees-pdf-preview/*
+- Removed exports for dees-pdf and dees-pdf-preview from ts_web/elements/00group-media/index.ts (public API removal)
+- Dependency upgrades: @design.estate/dees-domtools → ^2.3.9, apexcharts → ^5.10.3, lucide → ^0.577.0, @fortawesome/* → ^7.2.0
+- DevDependency upgrades: @git.zone/tsbuild → ^4.3.0, @git.zone/tsbundle → ^2.9.1, @git.zone/tstest → ^3.3.2, @git.zone/tswatch → ^3.2.5, @types/node → ^25.3.5
+- Updated ts_web/services/versions.ts to align CDN/version constants (apexcharts, tiptap → 2.27.2, fontawesome)
+
+## 2026-02-24 - 3.43.3 - fix(dees-table)
+use lucide icon identifier for Search action in dees-table
+
+- Replaced iconName 'magnifyingGlass' with 'lucide:Search' in ts_web/elements/00group-dataview/dees-table/dees-table.ts
+- Updates the icon identifier for the header 'Search' action; no functional behavior changed
+
+## 2026-02-21 - 3.43.2 - fix(dees-chart-log)
+avoid duplicate log entries, optimize incremental updates, enforce maxEntries, and respect filters when writing logs
+
+- Prevent property-bound logEntries from duplicating entries already present in logBuffer by deduplicating on timestamp|message
+- Call updateMetrics() when replaying or appending log entries so metrics stay accurate
+- Skip processing entirely when the incoming logEntries array is unchanged
+- Optimize append-only updates by writing only the new tail entries instead of full re-render
+- Enforce maxEntries when appending to the logBuffer to maintain buffer size
+- Respect filterMode and searchQuery when deciding whether to write appended entries to the terminal
+
+## 2026-02-21 - 3.43.1 - fix(dees-chart-log)
+replay buffered log entries when terminal becomes ready and sync logEntries updates to re-render filtered logs
+
+- Replay entries stored in logBuffer after terminal initialization to avoid losing entries that arrived early
+- Add updated() lifecycle hook to copy logEntries into logBuffer and call reRenderFilteredLogs when terminalReady
+- Call super.updated(changedProperties) to preserve base class behavior
+
+## 2026-02-17 - 3.43.0 - feat(dees-form)
+add layout styles to dees-form and standardize demo input grouping
+
+- Add static CSS to dees-form: default column layout with gap and support for [horizontal-layout] (row wrapping, alignment and gap).
+- Remove inline <style> from dees-form render to centralize styling.
+- Simplify dees-input-base styles by removing host margins and making spacing container-driven.
+- Update multiple demo files to wrap related inputs in a new .input-group container and include .input-group CSS for consistent vertical spacing.
+
+## 2026-02-16 - 3.42.2 - fix(dees-chart-area)
+add ApexAxisChartSeries type to dees-chart-area component to improve typing for ApexCharts series data
+
+- Introduces ApexAxisChartSeries type alias with support for number arrays, [x,y] tuples, and object {x,y,...} series entries
+- Type-only change — no runtime or API behavior modified
+- File changed: ts_web/elements/00group-chart/dees-chart-area/component.ts
+
+## 2026-02-16 - 3.42.1 - fix(dees-table)
+Guard against undefined action.type in dees-table by using optional chaining and update several dependencies
+
+- Use optional chaining (action.type?.includes(...)) in ts_web/elements/.../dees-table.ts to prevent runtime errors when action.type is undefined
+- Bump dependency apexcharts from ^5.3.6 to ^5.5.0
+- Bump dependency lucide from ^0.563.0 to ^0.564.0
+- Bump devDependency @git.zone/tswatch from ^3.0.1 to ^3.1.0
+- Bump devDependency @types/node from ^25.0.10 to ^25.2.3
+
+## 2026-02-02 - 3.42.0 - feat(dees-form-submit)
+forward button properties to internal dees-button, use property bindings, add demo and styles
+
+- Added forwarded properties: type, size, icon, iconPosition (with defaults) and preserved text/status/disabled
+- Changed template to use property bindings (.prop) for dees-button instead of string attributes
+- Switched internal event handler to listen for dees-button's @clicked event (was @click)
+- Added component styles (:host display and dees-button width:100%) and improved layout
+- Expanded demo with multiple usage examples (basic, icons, types, sizes, states, and a form context)
+
+## 2026-02-02 - 3.41.6 - fix(dees-simple-appdash)
+respect selectedView when loading initial view, falling back to the first tab
+
+- firstUpdated now loads this.selectedView if set, otherwise loads the first view tab
+- Prevents always loading the first tab and preserves a previously selected view on initial render
+
+## 2026-02-01 - 3.41.5 - fix(dees-service-lib-loader)
+prevent horizontal scrollbar by offsetting xterm WidthCache measurement container
+
+- Injects additional CSS into DeesServiceLibLoader to move xterm.js WidthCache measurement div off-screen horizontally (selector: body > div[style*="top: -50000px"][style*="width: 50000px"])
+- Fixes root cause where xterm creates a large-width measurement container (width: 50000px) on document.body that expands scrollWidth and causes a horizontal scrollbar
+- Change applied in ts_web/services/DeesServiceLibLoader.ts by concatenating the fix CSS into the injected stylesheet
+
+## 2026-01-29 - 3.41.4 - fix()
+no changes
+
+- No files changed in this commit; no code or documentation modified
+- No release required
+
+## 2026-01-29 - 3.41.3 - fix(dees-pdf-viewer)
+use in-memory PDF data for download and print; add robust print wrapper, cleanup and error handling
+
+- Download and Print now use pdfDocument.getData() to create Blob URLs so in-memory PDFs (pdf.js) can be saved/printed.
+- Print flow now opens an HTML wrapper with an iframe to allow onafterprint handling, auto-close, popup-fallback and timed cleanup of Blob URLs.
+- Added try/catch logging, URL.revokeObjectURL calls and safety timeouts to avoid resource leaks.
+- Removed context menu items that relied on the raw PDF URL (Open in New Tab, Copy PDF URL); Download/Print actions now await the async handlers.
+
+## 2026-01-28 - 3.41.2 - fix(dees-pdf-viewer)
+account for devicePixelRatio when setting canvas dimensions and scale 2D context to render crisp PDF pages and thumbnails on high-DPI displays
+
+- Multiply canvas.width and canvas.height by window.devicePixelRatio (dpr) and use Math.floor to set the actual pixel buffer size
+- Call ctx.scale(dpr, dpr) so drawing is rendered at device pixels while keeping CSS display size unchanged
+- Apply the same high-DPI adjustments to both main page rendering and thumbnail generation
+- Keep canvas.style.width and canvas.style.height set to viewport dimensions to preserve layout
+
+## 2026-01-27 - 3.41.1 - fix(dataview-codebox)
+fix dees-dataview codebox layout to ensure full-height, proper flex behavior and scrolling; bump internal dependencies
+
+- Updated CSS in ts_web/elements/00group-dataview/dees-dataview-codebox/dees-dataview-codebox.ts: added height:100%, box-sizing, display:flex and flex-direction:column on container, set flex-shrink on header elements, made code grid overflow:auto with flex:1 and min-height:0 to prevent overflow issues.
+- Bumped dependencies in package.json: @design.estate/dees-domtools from ^2.3.7 to ^2.3.8 and @design.estate/dees-element from ^2.1.5 to ^2.1.6.
+- Non-breaking visual/layout fix — suitable for a patch release.
+
+## 2026-01-27 - 3.41.0 - feat(docs)
+document new media & tile components and expand Workspace/IDE component docs; update component count to 90+
+
+- Updated README component count from 70+ to 90+.
+- Added Media & Tile components documentation (DeesTilePdf, DeesTileImage, DeesTileAudio, DeesTileVideo, DeesTileNote, DeesTileFolder, DeesPreview, DeesPdfViewer, DeesImageViewer, DeesAudioViewer, DeesVideoViewer).
+- Expanded Workspace/IDE documentation and introduced workspace subcomponents (DeesWorkspace, DeesWorkspaceMonaco, DeesWorkspaceDiffEditor, DeesWorkspaceFiletree, DeesWorkspaceTerminal, DeesWorkspaceTerminalPreview, DeesWorkspaceMarkdown, DeesWorkspaceMarkdownoutlet, DeesWorkspaceBottombar).
+- Enhanced Contextmenu docs to demonstrate nested submenus and programmatic API usage.
+- Added ITileFolderItem interface example for tile folder items.
+
+## 2026-01-27 - 3.40.0 - feat(dees-tile)
+unify tile badge styling and markup; replace component-specific badge classes with shared tile-badge classes and update related imports/tests
+
+- Add shared badge styles: .tile-badge-corner, .tile-badge-topright, .tile-badge and layout rules in dees-tile-shared/styles.ts
+- Update tile components (audio, video, image, folder, note, pdf) to use new badge markup and remove duplicated badge CSS
+- Shift badge positioning when a tile label is present (.tile-container:has(.tile-label))
+- Remove older per-component badge rules (duration-badge, item-count-badge, dimension-badge, note-language/note-line-indicator, preview-page-indicator) and replace with unified classes
+- Update tests to import dees-contextmenu and dees-dashboardgrid from new 00group-overlay / 00group-layout paths to reflect folder reorganization
+
+## 2026-01-27 - 3.39.1 - fix(dees-tile-note)
+use horizontal pointer position to scroll note body by computing percentage from clientX and element width instead of clientY and height
+
+- Changed ts_web/elements/00group-media/dees-tile-note/component.ts: use x = e.clientX - rect.left and percentage = x / rect.width to drive scrollTop calculation instead of using vertical coordinates
+- Fixes incorrect scroll mapping where vertical mouse position was used for horizontal scrolling interaction
+
 ## 2026-01-27 - 3.39.0 - feat(components)
 add large set of new UI components and demos, reorganize groups, and bump a few dependencies

+
+#### `DeesTileFolder`
+Folder tile with 2×2 content preview grid.
+
+```typescript
+<dees-tile-folder
+  name="Project Assets"
+  .items=${[
+    { type: 'image', name: 'logo.png', thumbnailSrc: '/thumbs/logo.png' },
+    { type: 'pdf', name: 'spec.pdf' },
+    { type: 'audio', name: 'jingle.mp3' },
+    { type: 'video', name: 'demo.mp4' },
+  ]}
+  clickable
+  @tile-click=${handleClick}
